AEKA40827R/C TRANSMITTER

FALCON_En_cover.p653/5/03, 3:43 PM1 English 2 BEFORE USING THE PRODUCT Thank you for purchasing this TAIYO product. Please read this owner’s manual thoroughly to get the most use from the plane and to learn how to operate it safely. ! WARNING Parents should read the following. If the 4.8V Ni-MH battery pack is used incorrectly, it may overheat, explode, or start a fire. Pay attention to the following items. • Be sure to follow the charging instructions in this manual. • Do not try to charge any battery pack other than the one sup- plied or an authorized 4.8V Ni-MH battery pack replacement. • After playing with the airplane, be sure to turn off the switch and remove the 4.8V Ni-MH battery pack. • If the battery pack is short-circuited, a large current will flow and this is a dangerous situation. Do not ever short-circuit the battery pack. • Never drop the battery pack into water, throw it in a fire or disassemble it. • Do not use, charge, or store the battery pack near a fire or in any place exposed to high temperatures or high humidity. • When using the 4.8V Ni-MH battery pack for the first time, be sure to charge it. Even if the 4.8V Ni-MH battery pack is not used, it will self-discharge over time. If the battery pack has not been used for about six months, be sure to charge the battery pack before using the product. Once the battery pack is charged, make sure to use it until it is completely dead be- fore recharging it. • Even if the battery pack has been charged correctly, if the fly- ing time is noticeably reduced, the 4.8V Ni-MH battery pack may have reached the limit of its useful life. Replace it with a new battery pack, and check the plane’s operation. (200 to 300 recharges should be possible.) If the external package of the 4.8V Ni-MH battery pack is damaged, do not use it. • The 4.8V Ni-MH battery pack and charger will become slightly warm during charging. This is not a problem. If the 4.8V Ni- MH battery pack is still warm after use, do not recharge it. • Do not recharge the battery pack within reach of infants or children. • Do not use, recharge, or leave the battery pack near a heater or in any place exposed to strong direct sunlight. • When you are not using the plane, remove the 4.8V Ni-MH battery packs from the airplane and the transmitter (charger). • Never use the transmitter (charger) as a DC power source for any other purpose. Never recharge the battery pack using any other charger. • Do not recharge the 4.8V Ni-MH battery pack once it is al- ready recharged. The battery pack may become very warm. Precautions when playing with the airplane: • The airplane should only be used in a wide-open area, under the supervision of an adult. Children should be at least 10 years old to operate the airplane. • Play with the airplane in a wide-open, safe location with no obstacles nearby. • Do not launch the airplane toward another person. Someone may be injured. • Never store the airplane in any place exposed to high tem- peratures, such as in a closed car in the summer. Do not put it in the front of a heater which blows hot air. • Do not fly the airplane on windy days or when there is lightning. • Never fly the airplane on the road, a railroad, near power lines, or any place where there are lots of people. Do not fly it in narrow or constricted areas. • If the airplane gets caught in a tree, on a building or in power lines, it is dangerous. Do not try to recover it. Notify the owner (if the airplane gets caught in power lines, contact the electric power company). • Warning ! : Do not touch the rotating propellers. Before re- placing the battery, turn off the slide switch. • If the airplane is broken or damaged, do not use it. • Do not use a combination of new and old batteries or different kinds of batteries in the transmitter (charger). Other precautions: • Never put any parts in the mouth. There is a danger of suffocation. • Sometimes the 4.8V Ni-MH battery pack may become warm. Pay special attention to this after using the airplane. • Do not point the transmitter (charger) antenna at people or animals. It may cause an accident. Do not bend the antenna. • Do not play with the transmitter roughly, hit it or swing it around. • Do not look steadily at the flashing LED on the transmitter. You may feel sick. Before flying the airplane, be sure to read the following. 1. Airplane R/C The airplane is different from driving an RC car. A safe and pleasant radio controlled flight may become dangerous if an inexperienced person flies the airplane or because of radio interference. Read this section, “Before flying the airplane, be sure to read the following”, and the “Owner’s manual” thor- oughly. Follow the rules for a safe and pleasant experience. 2. Radio waves This airplane uses the frequency specified by the Japan Radio Wave Safety Association. The frequency used by this airplane is marked on the box. A ribbon is included that should be attached to the tip of the transmitter antenna. The ribbon color indicates the frequency used by the transmitter. When you play with the airplane, be sure to attach this ribbon to the antenna. The frequency used by this airplane cannot be changed by changing crystal. There is a likelihood that someone nearby may be using the same frequency. Since the radio waves can reach 200 m or more, you can interfere with each other and lose control of the airplane. If this happens, it is a dangerous situation. Before playing with the airplane, be sure to check the RC operation. To check, turn on the airplane switch. If the propellers start rotating without using the controls on the trans- mitter, there is someone nearby using the same frequency. If you see someone else with the same color ribbon as you have on your transmitter, he/she is using the same frequency as you. In this case, play with the plane at another location, at a differ- ent time, or talk to the other person and work out a method for taking turns.

TAIYO KOGYO CO., LTD. SUBJECT: Circuit Descripton Reference: FCCID: AEKA40827 The A40827 transmitter is made up of the two stage RF section. The crystal Oscillator Q3 is a bipolar transistor. The signal from the Crystal oscillator is fed through the tuned circuit made up of L1 & C4 and then coupled to the output stage Q4. From Q4 the signal is coup[led to a tuned circuit made up of L2 and then coupled to a low pass filter through C12. The low pass filter is made up of C13, L3, and C14. Modulation for this unit is pulse position and this is provided by IC1, the modulation is varied by the switches, S2, S3, S4 & S5. The EUT also includes a battery charging intergraded circuit, IC2 that prevents over charging the re-chargable batteries. Form Letters6 Rev 25 June03

TEST PROCEDURE GENERAL: This report shall NOT be reproduced except in full without the written approval of TIMCO ENGINEERING, INC. RADIATION INTERFERENCE: The test procedure used was ANSI STANDARD C63.4- 1992 using a HEWLETT PACKARD spectrum analyzer with a pre-selector. The bandwidth of the spectrum analyzer was 100 kHz with an appropriate sweep speed. The analyzer was calibrated in dB above a microvolt at the output of the antenna. The resolution bandwidth was 100 kHz and the video bandwidth was 300 kHz. The ambient temperature of the UUT was 61ºC with a humidity of 76%. FORMULA OF CONVERSION FACTORS: The Field Strength at 3m was established by adding the meter reading of the spectrum analyzer (which is set to read in units of dBuV) to the antenna correction factor supplied by the antenna manufacturer. The antenna correction factors are stated in terms of dB. The gain of the Preselector was accounted for in the Spectrum Analyzer Meter Reading. Example: Freq (MHz) METER READING + ACF = FS 33 20 dBuV + 10.36 dB = 30.36 dBuV/m @ 3m ANSI STANDARD C63.4-1992 10.1.7 MEASUREMENT PROCEDURES: The unit under test was placed on a table 80 cm high and with dimensions of 1m by 1.5m. The table used for radiated measurements is capable of continuous rotation. When an emission was found, the table was rotated to produce the maximum signal strength. At this point, the antenna was raised and lowered from 1m to 4m. The antenna was placed in both the horizontal and vertical planes.

TEST PROCEDURE : The procedure used was ANSI STANDARD C63.4-1992. The spectrum was scanned from 30 MHz to 1000 MHz. When an emission was found, the table was rotated to produce the maximum signal strength. The antenna was placed in both the horizontal and vertical planes and the worse case emissions were reported. The UUT was tested in 3 orthogonal planes. TEST RESULTS: THE UNIT DOES MEET THE FCC REQUIREMENTS.
